Strange, there shouldn't be an OOM at this stage as the memory has been pre- allocated. But looking at the code I saw a faint possibility for memory re- allocation of double the size of the current buffer, which in your case would be 180 GiB. I quickly made a fix to this (and added some debugging stuff in case this fails). Can you please download http://www.chevreux.org/tmp/mira_3.0.3x1_prod_linux-gnu_x86_64_static.tar.bz2 and see whether the bug is still there (or maybe a new error message pops up)? In any case: even if the 'fix' isn't fixing the problem, you should be able to circumvent that particular problem by limiting the process size to something like 50 GiB with -GE:mps=50 Regards, Bastien PS: Lionel is right: I currently cannot recommend Solexa only for high coverages. -- You have received this mail because you are subscribed to the mira_talk mailing list.
